摘要:
The field effect transistor includes a laminated structure in which a buffer layer, and an electron transporting layer (undoped GaN layer), and an electron supplying layer (undoped AlGaN layer) are laminated in sequence on a sapphire substrate. An npn laminated structure is formed on a source region of the electron supplying layer, and a source electrode is formed on the npn laminated structure. A drain electrode is formed in a drain region of the electron supplying layer, and an insulating film is formed in an opening region formed in the gate region. When a forward voltage greater than a threshold is applied to the gate electrode, an inversion layer is formed and the drain current flows. By changing a thickness and an impurity concentration of the p-type GaN layer, the threshold voltage can be controlled. The electrical field concentration between the gate electrode and the drain electrode is relaxed due to the drift layer, and voltage resistance improves.

In a GaN-based semiconductor device, an active layer of a GaN-based semiconductor is formed on a silicon substrate. A trench is formed in the active layer and extends from a top surface of the active layer to a depth reaching the silicon substrate. A first electrode is formed on an internal wall surface of the trench and extends from the top surface of the active layer to the silicon substrate. A second electrode is formed on the active layer to define a current path between the first electrode and the second electrode via the active layer in an on-state of the device. A bottom electrode is formed on a bottom surface of the silicon substrate and defines a bonding pad for the first electrode. The first electrode is formed of metal in direct ohmic contact with both the silicon substrate and the active layer.
